Retrieving All Properties of a Test Object
The two sets of properties discussed in the “Viewing an Object’s Properties” section—value and nonvalue properties—can be retrieved from a test object in a script by invoking getProperties() and getNonValueProperties(), respectively. Each of these methods returns a Hashtable of property names and values. For nonvalue properties, the values are references to the actual objects in the target application (remote JVM). Listing 3.7 shows three methods: one that retrieves value properties, one that retrieves nonvalue properties, and one that calls both methods.
Listing 3.7. Methods for retrieving all properties of a test object
Java
public void printValueProperties(TestObject testObject) {
Hashtable valueProperties = testObject.getProperties();
Enumeration valuePropNames = valueProperties.keys();
Enumeration valuePropValues = valueProperties.elements();
while (valuePropNames.hasMoreElements()) {
System.out.println(valuePropNames.nextElement() + ":"
+ valuePropValues.nextElement());
}
}
public void printNonValueProperties(TestObject testObject) {
Hashtable nonValueProperties = testObject.getNonValueProperties();
Enumeration nonValuePropNames = nonValueProperties.keys();
Enumeration nonValuePropValues = nonValueProperties.elements();
while (nonValuePropNames.hasMoreElements()) {
System.out.println(nonValuePropNames.nextElement() + ":"
+ nonValuePropValues.nextElement());
}
}
public void printAllProperties(TestObject testObject) {
printValueProperties(testObject);
printNonValueProperties(testObject);
}
VB.NET
Public Sub printAllProperties(ByVal testObject As TestObject)
printValueProperties(testObject)
printNonValueProperties(testObject)
End Sub
Public Sub printValueProperties(ByVal testobject As TestObject)
Dim valueProperties As Hashtable = testobject.GetProperties
Dim valuePropNames As ICollection = valueProperties.Keys
Dim valuePropValues As ICollection = valueProperties.Values
Dim enumPropNames As IEnumerator = valuePropNames.GetEnumerator()
Dim enumPropVals As IEnumerator = valuePropValues.GetEnumerator()
Do While enumPropNames.MoveNext And enumPropVals.MoveNext
Dim currentProp As String = enumPropNames.Current
Dim currentPropVal As Object = enumPropVals.Current
If TypeOf currentPropVal Is Object Then
If Not (TypeOf currentPropVal Is String) Then
currentPropVal = currentPropVal.ToString
End If
End If
Console.WriteLine(currentProp + ":" + currentPropVal)
Loop
End Sub
Public Sub printNonValueProperties(ByVal testobject As TestObject)
Dim valueProperties As Hashtable = testobject.GetNonValueProperties
Dim valuePropNames As ICollection = valueProperties.Keys
Dim valuePropValues As ICollection = valueProperties.Values
Dim enumPropNames As IEnumerator = valuePropNames.GetEnumerator()
Dim enumPropVals As IEnumerator = valuePropValues.GetEnumerator()
Do While enumPropNames.MoveNext And enumPropVals.MoveNext
Console.WriteLine(enumPropNames.Current + ": " +
enumPropVals.Current)
Loop
End Sub
